Zoomies won't be as familiar with it, but the ridicule of Dubya was nearly as brutal as the ridicule you see of Trump now. Despite this, in retrospect, GWB was dramatically superior to Trump in terms of intellect, decorum and demeanor.

This guy looks sagacious next to Trump, but they were lampooning him in political cartoons as a literal chimp in the early 00s.

Anyway, neocon nostalgia thread.

Bushisms were made by Bush on purpose so that he appeared more like the average Joe.

I liked Bush. Also his wrecking of the economy and collapsing of the housing market enabled me to be able to buy a nice foreclosure house in a resort area in Florida back in 2010. I've since sold the house and now own a home with no mortgage. I only worked part time and life is not that bad. All thanks to Dubya

Oh, absolutely. It's just this idea that Trump is unmatched in his media criticism is just absurd.

GW also didn't hold press conferences crying about how someone made fun of him on TV or in a magazine; he just didn't give a fuck. It was rhetoric, but when he spoke of Americans, he praised all of them and at least encouraged a unified American identity, regardless of the usual puppeteers around him steering things.

Bush was the peak era of that edgy juvenile "suburbia and soccer moms suck" where conformity was the worst sin ever and pop punk and numetal and gangsta rap were hardcore fucking rebellion a bunch of edgy atheists with spiky hair were making movies and internet videos about how everyone and everything sucka and are pieces of shit and GTA 3 was going to end civilization and every middle American fucktard was scared shitless and begging the neocons to bomb Iraq and hiding behind Jesus and you did kickflips over troon goatfuckers and gangbangers and fat cops alike because the point was to piss everyone off and laugh about it but also we were still white enough for suburban conformity to be a problem and not total national rape

I wish I could go back, but that's also where we started our path to the present

Well put. His era coincided with the penultimate decline of the American empire, though its effects are just now truly beginning to appear in full force and with equally absurd zealots.

Thereโ€™s nothing nostalgic about this time. Shit sucked and jews were lying just like they are today. Fewer people were redpilled about the evils of the jew and boomers were still a real force to be reckoned with.

Trump's daddy gave him a small loan of one million dollars to start his little empire. Trump is an excellent showman, and a genuinely intelligent person, but he's too emotional, egotistical and kike-adjacent to be anything but an entertaining meltdown at the end of the empire. Those surrounding and managing the Bush era administration were also still largely white-perhaps they're the unsung heroes of the extension of American imperial privilege.

I was 20 in 2002. Every evening my mother would come home and turn in the CBS Evening News. Every day (literally every day) they had a short segment, maybe 30 seconds, where they mentioned a โ€œfallen hero,โ€ ie some soldier who died in Iraq.

Pretty heavy propaganda, desu. I just remember thinking how they didnโ€™t die for any noble cause like defending our country. They were de facto mercenaries. They joined the military for the same reason everyone else does: a paycheck.

The same news program would also mention โ€œcontractors,โ€ and I seriously had no idea what that was. They were actual, literal mercenaries. โ€œSecurity contractors,โ€ though they were always just simply called โ€œcontractors.โ€ Crazy that info about using actual mercenaries was right out in the open like that.

I remember when 9/11 happened. I was 10 years old then. I live in a third world country and when it happened the were airing the twin towers collapsing for a week straight on all channels, and I mean all. At the time I was watching Digimon and remember being pissed off cause they cut my cartoons to show the twin towers falling. There was this weird funereal and somber mood , as if we were expected to weep for the Americans. Weirdest shit ever.

What an idiotic take. W was one worse modern presidents and what killed neocons and the traditional conservative party. Why Obongo won twice. Trump came in with โ€œAmerica Firstโ€ and why he won. And is why people are so pissed at him right now. Nobody wants another W Bush and neocons
